I like writing short blogs, that are hopefully concise and
to the point. I have not mastered the
art of producing a long involved argument. I just like to summarize the main
points and leave you in no doubt as to what my opinion is on any topic I
choose. There is no point in giving a half hearted opinion. I tell the world my dearest thoughts because
I believe them and find solace in them and I want you to find solace in the
same place, namely Jesus who has died for the sins of His people. What an
honour if my poor scribbling were to help someone to find Jesus to be all that
they need.
I have written in previous posts about disasters. In the case of Concorde, decisions by people, plus other factors were directly to blame for the event. In the case of the Penlee disaster it may have been avoided if someone had made a better choice in the time beforehand and as a consequence brave men and the ship's crew and the captain and his family died. 9/11 was certainly the result of wicked men committing a terrorist act, but even in this there was heroism notably by another Cornish man, Rick Rescorla who helped many to safety and left it too late to help himself. In situations like this we see what the human spirit is capable of both good and evil. What of disasters that come on people because of the earth restless movement of tectonic plates. Often people live near volcanoes because the land is rich and fertile and they have the chance of a better life there when the volcano is resting. We cannot blame them for that but sometimes people become complacent...
